6:30 am - wake up (very tired), get ready, eat breakfast (usually an egg, tuna, hummus, cereal)
7:20 am - get to camp and and then kids soon start arriving - we meet in the big basketball gym (or sports hall as they call it)
8:20 or so - go off in our groups to our individual classrooms
8:30-10 am - morning activities (arts and crafts, games, etc.)
10-10:30 am - we have breakfast, which consists of rolls with a chocolate spread on them - which the kids love
10:30-12:30pm - more activities
12:30-1 - we all go back to the sports hall. They are always playing music (a cd, which has 4 songs on it..casper slide, cotton-eyed joe, and 2 other spanish songs that the kids know the dances to). The girls have become obsessed with cotton-eyed joe - on the first day, i taught a bunch of my kids how to do it, and now, all the kids know the dance.
1-1:30/2 pm - All of the counselors meet with Lior to discuss the day and also the next day.
2-3pm - The American counselors all go to eat lunch together. We have 3 places that we can go to where we don't have to pay. The first is a sit-down restaurant in the mall called Tamuz that has basically everything - salads, pasta, pizza, sandwiches, etc. It's really good and we go there the most. There is also a pizza place and a shawarma/falafel place that we can go to also. We basically just say that we are from Kefiada, and they let us get mostly whatever we want.
3- 6 pm- We either take naps (camp is exhausting!) or go to the pool to hang out.
6-night - This part of the day varies - we sometimes make dinner, sometimes go places to eat for dinner, and then we often do different activities at night. It's really nice here at night..much cooler so it's nice to be outside.
So, that is a basic rundown of our day during the camp week. It is very tiring but the afternoons and nights are relaxing!
day camp is a MUCH shorter day than FV.... sounds like fun.
